Pacquiao is going to go down as one of the greatest boxers in his era with his ability to flat dominate opponents in the ring. He has lost only three bouts in his career and has held a world title in seven different weight classes.

Pacquiao has the ability to come in and dominate and is also involved in his political career while he does this.

If Pacquiao ever gets the chance to fight Floyd Mayweather, he will solidify himself as the greatest welterweight of all time.

Jimmy Johnson is a four-time defending NASCAR Sprint Cup champion and is looking to making it five. There has been no other driver to ever dominate NASCAR like Johnson has.

If Johnson can win five consecutive championships, it would make him arguably one of the best athletes of all time. It would be a true dynasty.

Although Manning has only won a single title, he is the most dominant player in NFL history at quarterback. He has truly revolutionized the game and has made the position so much more difficult to play.

With the stats Manning has put up throughout the years, he truly is one of the most dominant athletes in NFL history.

Although Tiger has recently been struggling with personal problems and such, he has been dominating golf for a while now. Tiger really is one of the greatest golfers to ever play the game, and if he can straighten up his act and get his swing back together, he will break the all-time majors record.

With his domination of golf over the past decade, he might go down as the best ever, but that is still to be determined.

Yeah, Kobe is the most dominant player that is currently playing. He may not be as talented as LeBron James, but his ability to lead a team to championships sets him apart. He is the greatest guard in the league right now, and I would put him on my league over anyone.

Even though the NBA is sort of a joke, you have to give props to Kobe for being able to play with this energy throughout his career. There is a reason when someone in the office shoots at the trash can they yell Kobe and not LeBron.
